WHITE FUNGUS AT TAIPEI BOOK FAIR



New Zealand is set to take centre-stage in Taipei as the designated Guest of Honour at the Taipei International Book Exhibition, February 11-16. The honour will see 22 New Zealand authors, including Eleanor Catton, Witi Ihimaera and Joy Cowley, travel to Taipei for the event.

As part of New Zealand’s presence in Taipei, White Fungus has been commissioned to produce a New Zealand issue of our new sister bilingual (Chinese and English) publication the Subconscious Restaurant.

The new publication will be released with a big sound art event at Huashan Creative Park on February 14 (Valentine’s Day). Three New Zealand artists – Campbell Kneale, Greg Malcolm and Jeff Henderson – will perform alongside Taiwan artists Wang Fujui, Noise Steve and Sonic Deadhorse.

This project is kindly supported by the New Zealand Commerce and Industry Office Taipei.
